Tremor and Restraint

The Statesman Siliguri

August 02, 2025

An 8.8-magnitude earthquake is no ordinary event.

It is the sort of seismic jolt that history remembers, one capable of reshaping coastlines and triggering tsunamis that level towns. So when such a quake struck off the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia, the world braced for calamity. Warnings rang out across the Pacific. Evacuations followed swiftly. Yet the anticipated destruction, especially from tsunami waves, did not materialize in the form many feared. And in that lies a story not of overreaction, but of resilience, science, and a bit of fortune. At the heart of the matter is a profound truth: the severity of an earthquake does not guarantee the scale of a tsunami.
